Laneway festival has just announced the food trucks coming to Albert Park for the 2020 festival and, to celebrate, Festival Firector Julian and Alex from Peach's Hot Chicken popped into studio with some tasty (and extremely hot) kai. Will the Breakfast crew survive the legendary 'Holy Cluck' spice wings? Tune in!
Georgia from Park Up Collective and Chelsea from SKILAA popped by the studio today to chat about tomorrow's bushfire relief fund-raising gig happening at Whammy bar. Listen back and head along to support some great bands and a great cause.
Anji Sami of She's So Rad (and The Sami Sisters) stops by the studio ahead of their appearance at Milk & Honey's Silo Session, this Sunday. Talking candidly about the gig; how family life interferes with recording; and how her sister bought her too much fizzy wine at Stereolab last night - don't miss She's So Rad this Sunday, playing free for you in an absolutely stacked bill at Silo Park.
Renaissance woman, Teresa Patterson joins Pennie in the studio to discuss her wealth of music industry experience, from starting out at major labels to publicity, management, promotion and much more. Teresa along with Lani Purkis and Julia Deans are the team behind Milk + Honey Festival. Now in it's second year, the festival celebrates women and diversity, and is held on International Women's Day - Sunday 8 March at Silo Park.
Featuring Jess B, MC Tali + DJ Chicorelli, She's So Rad, Imugi, Disciple Pati + much more. Midday to 6pm and it's FREE.
Alicia Frankovich tunes in from Melbourne to speak with Heidi about her performance piece, 'AQI2020', currently showing at The Auckland Art Gallery. She shares her experiences of the insane wildfires that ravaged Australia earlier this year on which this work is based. Alicia's practice has often deconstructed conceptions of bodies, human and non-human, in the process opening up awareness and a sense of possibility about various ways our bodies are less discrete than we tend to take for granted. In line with that, this show has tried to follow threads of connection in the arts practitioners interviewed. Next Natasha Conland takes a call to discuss her role in curating the work for all of us currently stuck in one of the safest Islands in the world right now. And finally, Sophie Sutherland, who is one of the performers in Alicia's piece, tells us about the work from the perspective of a participant. Sophie currently has a show of her own at Audio Foundation, titled 'Ball Park', which runs until the 31st of Whiringa-aa-Nuku, October.
This week's jazz show, lovingly curated by Frances Chan, features kick-ass chicks, local newbies, mad riddims and a nod to the late Mr Watts.

Billy Joel is playing at Eden Park this Saturday. However, concertgoers will not be able to take the train to the venue as KiwiRail is closing the network for repairs.
Auckland’s rail is undergoing an almost 300 million dollar upgrade and rebuild in time for the opening of the City Rail Link.
This means large swathes of Auckland’s rail network will be out of use for the next three years.
David spoke to Councillor Mike Lee about the issue and how it will affect Aucklanders.
